Community Centers

Parks and Recreation Director

The Parks and Recreation Department offers a wide variety of activities for each member of the family to enjoy at our Recreation / Community Centers.

One of the main goals for the department is to improve recreational opportunities for all Knoxvillians, and with the opening of new fitness centers, the construction of greenways and walking trails and the installation of new playground equipment at many city parks, great progress is being made toward the goal.

AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM: all of these centers except the Inskip-Norwood Recreation Center have the After School Program.

SUMMER PLAYGROUND PROGRAM: all of these centers except the Inskip-Norwood Recreation Center and New Hope Recreation Center have the Summer Playground Program. Click here for the 2018 Summer Playground Program Flier [PDF]
